 The poll, released last week, examined worker engagement beginning in 2010 and ending in 2012. The survey classifies three types of employees among the 100 million people in America who hold full-time jobs.

How Will You Meet the Future Demand for Home Care Workers?
By Diane West, COO, Leading Home Care
Much attention is being focused on how home care companies will meet the growing demand for quality home care workers. The U.S. Dept. of Labor states the "employment of home health aides and personal care aides is expected to grow by 69%-70% from 2010 to 2020, much faster than the average for all occupations".
Deane Beebe, Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute Media Relations Director, writes "the demand for home care workers will grow from the 3.3 million employed in 2010 to 1.6 million new positions projected by 2020".
